Speech Writing Masterclass

Communications and Public Relations|5 days|Classroom or live online

This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into investor communication, internal communication and the judgement calls that sit outside recognised crisis communication protocols. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because internal communication failures surface later as engagement and retention problems. Delegates leave able to work confidently with media relations, spokesperson training and content planning in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Explain media relations to someone who does not do the work, measured against recognised crisis communication protocols
Spot where spokesperson training is failing before it becomes a finding
Put content planning on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
Take ownership of press release writing rather than escalating it
